The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1269

I breathed a long sigh of relief. When I was ready to go home, I saw the seafood restaurant across the street and felt a stuffy sensation in my heart.

When Theo called me, I hung up straight away because I did not really want to answer it.

Forget it. Maybe I should take a walk before I headed back.

It would be easy for Theo and I to get into an argument if I headed back now without relieving my frustrations.

I wandered leisurely on the streets.

The sky was gloomy, and dark clouds loomed over my head. After a few strikes of thunder, the sky started drizzling.

It was not exactly a drizzle because my clothes were soon soaked.

I ran into an alley but could not find the way out. I felt a little flustered after a short while.

Just as I was ready to take out my phone to use the GPS, a man appeared in front of me.

I looked at him, and after freezing for several seconds, a name appeared in my head.

Franky!

What was he doing here?

I clasped my hands together and forced myself to calm down. I greeted him, "It's been a while.”

He looked at me, his black eyes were so dark it could ooze out a drop of ink. "It's been a while, Ms. Lane.”

"How are you?” I did not know why they were in the country. Even though I was dying to know, he might not tell me. However, I still wanted to give it a try.

I'm fine."

He did not want to say much to me and left after saying that.

I stood in the alley for several minutes. The rain was getting heavier. Just as I planned to pull up the GPS to get out of here, an umbrella appeared over my head.

I looked at the man behind me. It was the bodyguard Theo had sent to follow me.

I asked him, "That man earlier... Did he follow me for a very long time?"
